(7 RE-CAPTURE OF THE BRIG MONARCH. DIST itXstr) LE" TER PRESS-PRINTERS. APPE - T AL to the E. BLlC'from th e LETTER PRE ,SS PRINTERS of the METROPOLIS.—At a time when so w Any appeals are made to the benevolence of the Public by bodies more nurfierous and perhaps more important, though certainly r sot, individually, more distressed,—great reluctance is felt by th e Committee acting for the Journeymen Printers of the Metropoli .s in soliciting for their unemployed and destitute fellow -workmen any portion of the Public sympathy. It is not the wish, <neither would it be the province, of this Committee, to advert to , the caw as which have led to the present embarrassments of trade; . they Nv' ill, however, take leave to state, that on no branch of indus try hat s the pressure, of the times fallen with greater severity than •on the, Printing Business. Every effort has been made, and is now making, by the Journeymen in employment, both in Town and Country, to lessen the calamity which has befallen their Bre thren, by a Weekly Subscription out of their scanty earnings; but the amount thus collected, proving so very inadequate to meet tits pressing and increasing demands, they are constrained, un willingly, to adopt this their only resource, of laying their Dis 'tresses before a humane Public, and of supplicating its generous Aid.; 'without which, numbers of their moat deserving Brethren runiSt endure, it is feared for months, all the evils which poverty teanyossibly inflict. although this Appeal is addressed to the Public at large, in the hope that some individuals, from motives of humanity, will step ~forward to their assistance, the Journeymen Printers are conscious of no claim on general sympathy stronger than that of urgent dis tress. They venture, however, to appeal to the patriotic feelings of their Countrymen—to such as consider the Press a powerful < engine, not merely in the diffusion of Knowledge, and advance neut of Science, but also in the preservation of Public Liberty.— that they will allow those feelings to operate in favour of the men who minister in its service, and who now unfortunately are com pelled to implore their succour. 11'o the Literary portion of the Public they wish particularly to <address themselves, with becoming huzility, in this their season 'of adversity ; most of whom are dlesbtless aware, that for some ;tin: after the introduction of the Art, the profession of a Printer was as illustrious as it was profitable ; but whether from the in :roads made by Machinery,---th e general diffusion of Education, which renders learning no mark of distinetion,—or, from whatevir other cause,—certain it ia; the operative Printer is'net at all supe rior, in point of remuneration, to that of the commonest handicraft workman. They eoeEdently cherish the hope, however, their claims to protection, will still be recognised by the lovers of Lite rature, and that the humble instru m e n ts o f us h er i ng i nto t h e wor ld the production* of Genius and Learning, will not be suffered to perish without assistance. The Committee cannot omit to notice, in terms of pride and thankful's," the liberal donation which has been sent to a Sub ncriptinanow raising in Bristol and its neighbourhood for the Dis tressed Printers, by a celebrated Female, an ornament to her sex, ' sold to the Literature of the Country --most serviceable will it prove to the objects of her bounty--,more valuable as an example 4r imitation. The Committee gratefully announce the following Donations and Subscriptions received arnee their last Advertisement. They regret the necessity of again most urgently soliciting the assistance of the Public, the numbe r of distressed Applicants remaining un diminished, and there bring no prospect at present of the least im provement in Tiede.. • Committee-Room, Three Herrings, 'Bell-yard, Temple-bar, Sept. 28, 1826.

Mr. CURTIS, Aurist to his Majesty, and their Royal High nesses the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, and Surgeon to this Institution, will commence his NEXT COURSE of LECTURES on the ANATOMY, PHYSIOLOGY, and PATHOLOGY of the EAR, on MONDAY, October 2. . 11 . 1 AANGRMENT OF THIC COURNIt. In the Introductory Part will be considered the importance of the Sense of Hearing, as the medium of social intercourse ; the various degrees of this Sense in the several tribes of Animals; with the different construction of the Organ for that purpose. The Anatomy of the Human Ear will be described, as divided into external, intermediate, and inter»alparts; and the description will be illustrated by Anatomical Preparations. The Physiology, or uses of the different parts of the Ear, will next be examined. On finishing the Structure and Uses of the Ear, the various Diseases occasioning Deafness will then be considered, treating them in the same order in which the Structure has been described. This order will catnprehend, first, the Affections of the Meatus Auditorium, or external Ear; secondly, those of the Tympanun►, viz. its puriform discharge, and the Obstruction of the Eustachian' Tube, with the Operation ; thirdly, the Diseases of the Labyrinth, whether constitutional, as nervous, scrofulous, syphilitic, &c. ; or local, as Paralysis of the Auditory Nerve, defective Organiza tion, he. The Subject will conclude with general Remarks, applicable to this chute of Diseases; to txhich will be added, Considerations on the best Means of treating the Deaf and Dumb. A Clinical Lecture will be given occasionally on the most im portant Cases that occur at the Royal Dispensary.

N ., „au , mk JOURNAL OF A VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY FOR A DINNER. BY A POET. N.B. The following Journal was lately discovered (together with a pair of buff pantaloons, far advanced " in the autumn of their lives," two tragedies, and an epic poem), by the owner of 'a lodging-house in May s-buildings, on the table of one of his attics, where they are supposed to have been left by some eccentric genius, who, with characteristic absence of mind, had quitted his lodgings, forgetting, in the hurry' of his departure, the slight circumstance of pay ment. As the present is the age of. discoveries, we ,give the following unsuccessful one entire, premising that it.was left this morning at our office, by an elderly gentleman of superb dimensions, in a brown wig and gaiters.—" I decus, noitrum, melioribu s u t ere fatis I" At half-past three o'clock this afternoon (it being clean-shirt day) started off from May's-buildings on a " voyage of discov'ery" for a dinner ; my own establish ment—a very unusual thing by the bye—being some, what inadequate to supply that article. Sounded in my breeches pockets, and. found the exact sum of four pence half-penny, exclusive of one Queen Anne's farthing. At four P.M. cast anchor opposite a ham and beef shop -in Coventry-street : went ashore and asked for tick; article unknown in that quarter; Tacked to leeward and dropped gently down with the current (of passers by) towards my publisher's shop in the Haymarket. Advanced with smiling face but empty stomach towards him, and enquired after b is wife and the little ones, al so a ft er t h e tuecess of myast volume, Sentimental Lyrics." Answered with an emphatic 'point of the forefinger towards the unsold copies, lying thick as autumnal leaves that strew the brooks of Valambrosa," on the shelf. Looked majestically inde pendent : hinted that four o'clock was a good hour for dinner, and that if not engaged, should be happy to take pot-luck with him :at the same time letting off' a pun by way of fore-taste of my after-dinner wit. Happiness declined by the bibliopole, with infinite re gret and so forth. Unfurled my top-Mast sail (viz. my hat) and tacked towards Long , Acre, where my kind patron Joseph Digging, coach-maker, vegetates. Stepped ashore ; enquired if the family were at- home and replied to in the negative. Stood off for the Strand with a stiff breeze, (exceedingly annoying to a keen appetite,) dropped anchor at a second ham and beef shop, and put the same question respecting tick. Answer same as before. Mein.--' ick is as difficult to find as the longitude, and if Captain Parry experience equal difficulty in finding the Pole, God h e lp h im ! A t a quarter past f our o'clock, P.m., with the wind (would that I could raise it 1) due south, steered right a-head for Girard's Chop-house —my own chops being in a lamentable condition ;—anchored in the coffee-room and called aloud for soup meagre (meagre enough !) priced at fourpence. Discussed it with surprising celerity : helped the w a it er t o t h e o dd copper, and returned forthwith to my attic, in order to put the finishing joke to my new volume of " Attic Fragments."—s o much for poetry !! !

LITERATURE. POETICAL SKETCHES, &c. ; by At4ate A. Warts. We have been induced to notice this little book from the modest and unobtrusive nature of its contents. While stimulants in every —especially the more ima ginative—department of literature are unspatingly.adopt ed ; it is delightful to meet with an author who trust ing to feeling as his oracle, comes forward with a 'vo lume of artless, impassioned, and healthful poetry. Mr. Alaric Watts, though he appears to have model led his style of thought upon the school of Words worth, (whom he has evidently studied with the en thusiasm of a kindred genius) has yet paid an almost equal attention to the rapid, vigorous, and concentrated versification of 'Byron ; so that blending the , . matter of one, with the manner of the other ; thinking like Wordsworth, and expressing himself like Byron, no wonder that he has produced a volume calculated for lasting admiration. There is scarcely, indeed, in the whole compass of our modern poetry, a work of richer promise than these " Sketches ;" it is not that they are dyed all over with the deep glowing tints of a versatile fancy, or fraught with a certain restlessness of thought—the necessary co Ripa thon of the poetic temperament ;—these, though suf ficient, perhaps, for the purposes of a sober notoriety, would scarcely have fixed them in the high situation which they now hold among works of the imagination, but for the perfect downright sincerity that breathes through them. Mr. Watts has adopted no popular or impressive themes to ensnare the better judgment of his readers—he has fought no battles, and murdered no bravos in his pages—all is quiet and unassuming, and calculated not so much to take the heart by storm and shock it into astonithment or passion ; as to win its way to the feelings, noiselessly, and almost imper ceptibly, like the stealing course of some summer rivu let. In the poetry of the present day—however elo qoent,,and sometimes even impressive in its character —there is too much of generality, and too little of in dividual feeling. Nothing is easier than to complain of a broken heart or wounded sensibility (even Mr. JohnWilks, junior, of bubble notoriety, can do this, and poetically too), these are matters of course ; it isin fact taken for granted, that the hearts--as well as the heads— of such versifiers shouldbe cracked ; but to impress the mind of the reader with a strong sense of individual suffering and melancholy in the writer " hic labor hoc opus est." All this, and more than this, Mr. Watts has successfully accomplished, and convinced us, did we need additional proof, that genuine sensibility is only to be found the nearer it approaches to the sim plicity of nature. In making our selection from Mr. Watts's pages, we shall commence—as its importance deserves—with a sketch of Mount Blanc, as beheld born the valley of Chamouni. The poem is as sublime as its subject : CHAMOTJNI.—A SKETCH ON THE SPOT. The lips that may forget God in the crowd, Cannot forget him here, where he has built For his own glory in the wiIderness.—WOHDSWORTII. 'Tie night ;—and Silence with unmoving wings Broods o'er the sleeping waters;—not a sound Breaks its most breathless hush. The sweet moon flings Her pallid lustre on the hills around, Turning the snows and ices that have crowned— Since chaos reigned—each vast and searchlees height, To beryl, pearl, and silver;—whilst, profound, In the still, wavelese lake, reflected bright, And, girt with arrowy rays, rests her full orb of light. The eternal mountains momently are peering Through the blue clouds that mantle them ; on high Their glittering crests majestically rearing, More like to children of the infinite sky, Than of the daulal earth. Triumphantly, Prince of the whirlwind ! Monarch of the scent ! Mightiest where all are mighty !—from the eye Of mortal man half hidden by'the screen Of mists that moat his base from Arve's dark, deep ravine, Stands the magnificent Montblanc ! His brow Scarred with ten thousand thunders,—most sublime, Even as though risen from the world below To mark the progress of Decay: by clime, Storm, blight, fire, earthquake injured not ! Like Time, Stern chronicler of centuries gone by, Doomed by a heavenly fiat still to climb, Swell and increase with years incessantly, Then yield at length to thee, most dread Eternity ! Hark! There are sounds of tumult and Commotion Hurtling in. murmurs on the distant air _ Like the wild music of a wind-lashed ocean, They rage, they gather now !—Yon valley fair Still sleeps in moonlight loveliness, but there Methinks a form of horror I behold With giant-stride descending! 'Ti: Despair, Riding the rushing avalanche ; now rolled From its tall cliff,—by whom—what mortal may unfold ?

This morning the brig Monarch, Captain Mondell, arrived here. It will be recollected, that this vessel was taken by the Brazilian squadron some time ago, for at tempting to violate the blockade of Buenos Ayres. The following is an account of the manner in which Captain Mondell succeeded in regaining possession of his vessel. — It appears, that after being condemned at Monte Video, eprae-master and twenty-five men, seven of whom were soldiers, were put on board the Monarch, for the purpose of navigating her to Rio. • Previously, however, to sailing from Monte Video, Captain Mondell had succeeded in se creting some arms under the bed of the mate, who, with his cook, had been left on board the brig. iThen within about 200 miles of Rio, Captain Mondell commenced putting in practice his plan for the recovery of the vessel, and having, with the assistance of the mate and cook, suc ceeded in overpowering the prize -master and the watch at that time upon deck, he, by threats, obliged him to call up the hands from below, singly; and as each man came up, he was seized by Captain Mondell and delivered to th e coo h u k, s taken wlipinioned and fastened him to the by surprise, scarcely any resistan ce b m w o a a l s t t e- roffered,ina g n d s T . with the exception: of one black, who appeared very loth to surrender without . some fighting. The Brazilians being all secured, Captain Mondell was anxious to dispose of them as quickly as imitable; but as their number was too great to render it safe to trust them in a boat with their hands at liberty, unless at a considerable distance from the brig, Captain Mondell taik the precau tion of placing the long-boat in slings, and into`. this, after putting on board a stock of provisions, a compass, and their clothes, he put the Brazilians, their arms being still pinioned, with the exception of one. The boat was then lowered into the -water ' and the remaining seamen was put on board, with his hands at liberty, and a ..knife, for the purpose of setting his comrades at liberty. By this means sufficient time was allowed for the Monarch to gain such a distance from the boat as to render vain any attempt on the pert a the Brazilians to re-capture Two of the Brazilians, one of whom is an officer, volun teered to come with Captain Mondell; and with these two, and his mate and cook, he has succeeded in bringing the vessel safe into this port. The brig Stag, one of the British vessels seized by the Brazilians, sailed from Monte Video two days before the Monarch. Captain Mondell is of opinion that Captain Lashley would try to re-capture her.. a• NEW MODE OF OPERATING ON TEETH. Some of the papers have entered into a discussion on the merits of a new mode of operation for the removal of carious teeth, by Mr. Fay, an American dentist. As this is a subject of much interest with a large portion of the public, it is due to them, as well as to Mr. Fay, to state that his plan, which is f o und e d upon the most correct and scientific principles, has received the approbation of nearly all the leading surgeons of the metropolis. Mr. Fay . pn!- ceeds by excision, and we are assured that the operation is entirely free from pain, a statement which may readily be credited when the improv e d for c eps use d for the operation is seen. The reasoning upon which this practice is founded, and which experience is said fully to have confirmed, is, that in 999 rases out of 1,000, the seat of digitate is the crown, not the fang of the tooth, so that by removing the crown, the pain instantly teases, a new deposit of oast fic matter takes place, by which the fang is protected from external injury, and the cheeks do not fall in, giving a pre mature appearance of old age, as *hen the fangs are ex tracted, whilst there remains a good basis for'artificial teeth, if required. By Mr. Fay's process, nothing more is done to the diseased tooth than the removal of the crown by the forceps. It is worthy of remark, that in the removal of the crown by other means, particularly filing, which' is a practice with most dentists, there is usually acute inflam mation, and much subsequent agony. In the rate case of diseased fang, Mr. Fay, after the removal of the crown, is we are assured, able, by his ingenious inventions, to re move them with as much ease as if the tooth had not been excised. • The Lancet of Saturday, speaking of Mr. Fay's mode of excising teeth, sap— ,4 We dean this a very ingenious and safe operation, and have no doubt that it trill be generally adopted. It is not intended en tirely to supersede extraction, so there must occasionally be cases in which, m consequence of diseased Censor jaws, that operation will be required : such cases however, are very rare, in comparison with those of diseased crowns ; consequently, the procedure shove described is applicable to the great majority of caws of carious teeth." The American Professor Si Him'', in his " Tour of 1819," says.— " Severe suffering from my teeth, while in Montreal, obliged me to resort to the usual painful remedy. It was rendered, how ever, in the present instance, mush less distressing then common, by a mode ofertraction whirl I have never seen prattised elsewhere. " A pair of strong hawks-bill forceps, bent at the mouth, gently downward, and then inward;and terminating in delicate teeth, is applied to the tooth to Iv drawn ; no cutting of the gum is prac tised, nor any preparation, except limply to place a small piece of wood (pine is commonly used) between the forceps and the jaw, and close to the tooth; this stick is the prop--the tooth is the weight to be lifted, and the hand applies the power just et the end of the lever, that is, at the other end of the forceps. The pressure is applied downward, if it be the lower jaw ; upward, if it be the upper jaw ; and the tooth (without any thing of that horrible crash which attends the usual mode of extraction, without prying against the jaw, and thus creating danger of breaking it, beside* producing much pain by the pressure of the sides of the socket) is lifted perpendicularly from its bed ; there is no other violence than to break the periosteum, and the connecting vessels and nerves, and the thing is effected with comparatively little pain. When it is desired simply to cut a tooth off, in order to plug it, it is ne cessary only to compress the instrument without prying . . " It may be supp ose d t h at t h e pressure against the jaw, by the prop, must be painful ; on the contrary, it is not felt,, because the action and re-action are exactly equal, between the premium on thst jaw and the resistance of the tooth. Dr. Fay, froM Verrsoot, is the person who operates in this ingenious manner." w " I am aware. that the thing has been attempted in other modes, but I believe in none so simple and effectual." _ . .
